[Grand RP Tournament] Xmas Edition - Rules

Introduction

Ok people, its time for a new Grand RP Tournament! In this Special Xmas Edition the tournament will follow a more common sudden death setup with no losers bracket. Applications can be found here. The prize pool is really really tempting so take your risk and try your luck out!

Battle Rules

-Rei's R&R
-Killing and Stealing: Allowed
-CJs: Allowed
-CEs: Allowed
-Range: Mid-range
-Terrain: Plain field without a water source.
-Each fight needs to finish in 7 days, upon which they'll be closed and graded by RP mods
-Arguments are to be done exclusively through VM (not PM or MSN). Moderators opinions can only be asked twice per match, with the 3rd time pertaining to a final decisive judging. If a member needs to ask for a moderators input, he/she must do so through this thread and not directly to the Moderators. Following the template and the rules of the thread is essential
-If a participant doesn't reply for more than 4 complete days, his opponent wins the match by default
-Failing to abide any of the rules of the tournament may lead to default defeat
-Maker of the thread has the right of first move
-Both fighters need to link their bios and valid customs threads in their first post

4th to 12th Place:
-Pick in order from the remaining prize Pool
-1 Prize

Prize Rules

-If a prize has rules pertaining to the bios that can gain it (like the 7SM, Sound Release, or EIG), you need to be sure that the bio you are entering the tournament with can have it otherwise you can't claim the prize.

-During the tournament you cannot change the bio you're participating with. You're bound to it during the tournament and breaking this rule qualifies for a loss by default.

-Because the tournament is all out, customs included, you are required to have a viable, valid CJ thread. Failing to have one may be grounds for not accepting your application or to lose the tournament.

-If you want to claim the restricted bio prize, you need to be sure you're eligible fully for the bio as you won't be granted any waiting time to drop a bio once the tournament ends. You need to be sure that by the time you finish the tournament, you can drop the required bios and that you fullfill all the requirements for the restricted bio you're claiming. Also, you need to fulfill all the requirements to have the bio so if you don't have a valid sensei status, you can't claim an MS bio.

-Only free Jinchuriki bios can be claimed.

-You can't, through this tournament, gain a Madara, Obito or Naruto bios or any bio on hold.

Round #1!

Ok, match ups are up and can be follow through this image:

For the first match, the title should be "[RP Tournament Round #1] X vs Y" where as X is the thread maker and the person on top of the match up and Y is his opponent. The example for the first match would be [RP Tournament Round #1] -Castiel- Vs Kamishiro, where as -Castiel- makes the thread and the first move.

The tournament will follow my GMT, which is +00 GMT. So for reference, its now 21h53 here. The matches can be started in 2hours and 6 minutes, basically on the 10th of December and will need to be finished in the deadline posted in the rules. Don't forget that judging, complaints, discussions, etc are to be held in the specific thread made for that purpose through the assorted template and not through the fight threads. You can, off course, work the issues with your opponent outside the battle threads. Don't forget also that contacting a mod directly about an issue on a fight is not allowed and may lead to losing the match by default.

1st Place is Lili
2nd Place is Serpent
3rd Place is Typhon
4th Place is Lord of Kaos

Lord of Kaos has already notified me what prize he wants if possible.

Once these first one choose, I'll distribute the next batch to the following people.

to claim a prize please fill this template:

PHP Code:

[B]Bio Link:[/B]
[B]Prizes:[/B]

for 7SM you'll need to wait until i contact Caliburn. For Sound and EIG and Sage Mode and Fuuinjutsu, you don't get it auto. You get the full permission to, without any further requirement, start learning it from someone that can teach it. Restricted bio, you get the bio auto. Jinchuriki you get the Jinchuriki if its not claimed or isn't being tested for.

I would also like to give my permission, as an EIG Master, for Typhoon to learn the Gates, if he so wishes. This should be as good as getting it through the tournament, since, by normal standards you'd have to get permission from 2 EIG Master, one of which would be you teacher. I can't teach, so you'd have to find a second EIG master anyway xD

Re: [Grand RP Tournament] Xmas Edition - Rules

-Battle Restricted Bio (I will be dropping both my Bio's)
-Curse Mark
-EIG (Since I am forced to drop my bio's for the battle restricted bio,when I make my second bio can I learn EIG on that bio? as long as it meets the requirements?)

2. I'm not sure what to do about this one. I already have Fuuin, and I don't believe any of the other prizes can be possessed by a Jinchuriki bio. Could I use it to drop a CFS and/or CE? Or, if the EIG method Lili described is no longer allowed, and the second prize can be passed to my second by, I'd like a Curse Mark for my Samurai.

Serpent no EIG. Its clearly stated that for prizes you wish like EIG or Sound that have bio requirements the bio your entering the tournament with needs to fullfill those.

Same for Curse Mark. If you're dropping both bios, in which bio do you want to put it? The CM is something we add to a bio thus bio bound thus can only be put in the bio you enter the tournament with, meaning that you can't claim that since you're dropping the bio you entered with.

Btw, if you had a bio waiting for approval (i think I saw it), you might want to ask someone to move for decline as it can't be approved in the meanwhile until you actually get the full restricted bio approved.

Gaara is cool, rest you can't claim. As for EIG, Lili gave her permission but as an EIG master, thus not involving the tournament.

Just waiting for Serpent to say which bio he'll be making and we ca proceed.

Btw, Lord of Kaos in his inability to log in (sick/in a hospital) had ask me that if his turn came to pick and he was still away, he'd like Sound Release if it was available. At the moment it is and so, he gets sound release.

I also ask that you please post what bio you want to make.
